Lovely. The eyes make the photo pop, but are they a touch overdone? I seem to flip-flop in my opinion, but end up liking this portrait very much.

Love the black and white and the side lighting fading off to black is dramatic...
i find her eyes a bit over white, almost as if light is coming from them... Might have toned that back a bit, but altogether a very nice image
